4 THE EVENING STAR, 2 ora SHINGTON: THURSDAY .......---. -- August 22, 1889, c cnosny ~ NOYES. Editor. ——— THE EVENING STAR has tne fullest Lecal Cireulation of any Newspaper in the Werid, and as an Advertising Medium is worth more than all the ether papers published tm Washington. —— es? New York Office: Room 93, Tribune Building. Boston is beginning to get worried about the condition of her “private ways”—streets, lanes and alleys opened as a private enterprise, and over which the public authorities have never assumed jurisdiction. The complaint against these places is that the authorities do not un- dertake to keep them in good condition and the Private proprietors do not seem to care to do *0. Between the two reluctant parties in inter- est the “ways” are badly neglected. Some of Washington's ancleaned alleys present s more bopeless case than that of these private ways. There are instauces where alleys have been paved on the motion of former boards of Com- missioners under the compulsory permit sys- tem and one-half the cost assessed upon the adjoining property owners, after which opera- tion the alloys have been completely forgotten so faras cleaning is concerned, The paving ‘was done and property owners assessed for it on the ground that it was ‘necessary for the public health, safety and comfort” to give the alleys a bard surface which the authorities could readily keep clean, After the assessments have been paid the authorities pro- ceed not to keep the alleys clean. In the case of Boston’s private ways there is somebody to be held directly responsible for shameful ne- giect of their condition who can be made to pay damages. The assessed property owner where ground adjoins one of these public alleys at the capital bas a more difficult task in locat- ing responsibility, the blame for neglect being shifted from official to official, and sometimes thrown upon Congress and the fact of insuffi- cient appropriations; in which case the indig- nant citizen is compelled to endure a public nuisance or abate it himself. ——__ —— While Mr. Edison is himself receiving deco- rations and honors, one of his agents at the Paris exposition is preparing to get a taste of the French law. It seems that he made some pretty bold statements accusing the Paris newspapers of publishing or suppressing in- terviews for money, and some of the jour- nalists of that city threaten to make him prove bis words, His first offense was given, it is said, through the graphophone, to which the agent told his story, and which repeated the defamatory statements to President Carnot when he visited the Edison exhibit. The inter- esting legal question is suggested whether pro- ceedings should be taken for slander or for libel The inscription on a plastic scroll by the recording needie of the instrument might be considered writing in the broader sense of the term, while the speech which gave the needle motion, and in which the record reveals itself, is addressed to the ear and not the eye. This is only one of many problems that might come up to vex the lawyers through the extensive use of an apparatus whose chief re- commendation is its ability to “talk back.” A danghter of Collis P. Huntington promises to add another to the long list of American heiresses who have given themselzes to foreign noblemen in marriage. The reflexivs form of the verb is employed advisedly. We used to hear a good deal in the old times about poor and beautiful young women who, in spite of their remonstrances, were given by obdurate parents to rich and powerful suitors in ex- change for some form of assistance, financial or social. The form of transfer has been changed. It is the young woman who makes the match nowadays, and a very marked hint is conveyed by her to her hesitating parents that they had better make haste and ratify her choice. A peculiar feature about this variety of union is that the male element in it is us- ually poor and the female element rich, thus completely reversing the former and more ro- mantic rule. In the case of Miss Huntington itis understood that her prince, Francis of Hatzfeld, is only about $300,000 in debt. This is viewed as a very creditable financial show- ing for a person of his noble biood and present | “HF, limited sources of income, a A Boston cotemporary indulges in some com- ments on the wonderful record of one genera- tion of the Pield family, which contained three such brothers as Justice Stephen Field, David Dudley Field and Cyrus W. Field, to say noth- ing of the less noted Jonathan E. Field, once President of the Massachusetts state senate. It is odd that any paper published in New Eng- land should have made such a list and omitted from it a brother scarcely less eminent in his own chosen walk in life than the three first mentioned in theirs, The Rev. Henr y M. Field, editor of the New York Evangelist, has made | himself and his writings known wherever relig- ious journalism has gained a foothold. It appears, from the latest dispatches from the northwest, that the commander of the Rash has been making a regular habit of putting one man on board of each of the sealers he has captured and ordering the “prize crew” off with his craft to Sitka. As nothing has been heard from Sitka of the arrival of any of these vessels there, and as they have not turned up in port anywhere else, it is fair to assume that they have given their “prize crews” @ novel to read or a comfortable hammock to doze in, and gone on with the sealing business asof old. Of course, itis unreasonable to expect an ener+ Setic skipper to stay captured any longer than he needs to; but the question is now, who is going to pay the salaries of the able seamen thus taken from our revenue marine and given ® vacation in the midst of a cruise. The cabinet is pretty well scattered over New England just at present, with the Secretary of State im Maine, the Secretary of the Navy in New Hampshire, the Secretary of War in Ver- mont, the Secretary of the Treasury in Masea- chusetts and the Postmaster General in Rhode Island. The only unfilled place seems tobe Connecticut. Why shouid not the Secretary of Agriculture take a trip to that state and study the culture of the wooden nutmeg plant? ——$—— German officials have insulted and ill used some American travelers, a companion piece to the affair at Mentone is furnished, and the great American republic, being impartially thumped by both parties, is forced imto = posi- tion of thoroughly disinterested neutrality in Franco-German controversies, ————— _ It is announced that “the only living descendant of Christopher Columbus has tarned up in New York and wants to help out the big fair of 92." That is where the only living descendant of Christopher Columbus shows his common sense. All reasonable per- sous who are not biased by petty considerations want to help the big fair out of New York, and most of them want to help it into Washington, ——————— The question now is whether Governor Lowry will be as successful in bringing back his eloping son as be was in bringing back the fugitive champion of the prize ring. ——— Virginia republican platform: “Mahone so- cepts.” Today s new governor of West Virginia has been elected.
